Entretien
I have interviewed for two different roles so I went through the same interview twice and failed both. After an initial call with the recruiter they booked two technical tests and the format is everything you wouldn't want to go through: live coding on HackerRank on a purely algorithmic exercise. The kind of test that will make you look incredibly smart if you get the initial inspiration (assuming you manage to code something decent on an online IDE without access to your shortcuts or documentation) or incredibly stupid if you get stuck. It doesn't prove you can code or do the job whether you pass it or not. On the second one the interviewer was also completely not interested in what I was doing, turning off his video and going completely on mute for several minutes. No feedback of any sort has been provided and not heard anything at all from the recruiters either.

Recruiter reached out via linkedin.
Had a really bad experience in the first technical round.
You walk into an interview hoping for a fair conversation. What you get instead is someone on the other side trying to prove they are smarter, louder, or more important than you.
They ask vague questions.
They interrupt everytime.
They make you feel small for not reading their mind.
I really regret appearing for the interview at Roku as it was really disrespectful.
I searched and found out that panel provide one to one interview prep and I think that’s why more than my actuall skills and knowledge he was interested in if I follow the same approach he teaches.

Question 1
It was supposed to be DSA but felt like panel is taking hiring manager round.
He was a also a senior engineer but acted like a manager.

Talk with Recruiter, tech talk and Hackerrank with Engineer. Engineer interviewer offered little feedback during an implementation discussion. I justified my selection as being best for a time-constrained interview and he agreed. The interviewer was playing around in my code editor while I was typing, causing distractions and additional errors in my work. Finally, the interviewer was extremely dissatisfied that I did not use the other option that I had discussed, and that I did not select Python when I was told to solve in any language.

Recruiter called me and asked some general questions related to work experience, tech stacks etc. Later they asked about renumeration drawn from the current org: to which I responded saying 'need to check with HR regarding any NDA if they have pertaining to salary disclosure'. I also felt current renumeration being irrelavent question for next role and asked what's the comp. band that this role is entitled to. To which recruiter told without current comp. info, they won't be able to proceed further and rejected on spot.
